Answer:
a. $13
b. $20,625 Unfavorable
Explanation:
a. Computation of overhead volume variance is shown below:-
Variable overhead rate = Variable overhead cost ÷ Expected standard hours
= $275,000 ÷ 25,000
= 11 direct labor hour
Fixed overhead rate = Productive capacity ÷ Expected standard hours
= $50,000 ÷ 25,000
= $2 direct labor hour
Total overheard rate = Variable overhead rate + Fixed overhead rate
= $11 + $2
= $13
b. The computation of overhead controllable variance is shown below:-
Variable overhead cost = Overhead rate × Standard hours
= $11 × 21,875
= $240,625
Fixed overhead cost = Overhead rate × Standard hours
= $2 × 21,875
= $43,750
Total overhead cost = $13 × 21,875
= $284,375
Actual result = $305,000
Variance = Actual result - overhead cost applied
= $305,000 - $284,375
= $20,625 Unfavorable
Working note:-
Standard direct labor hours = Actual units ÷ Standard hours
= 35,000 × 1.6
= $21,875
Standard units per hour = (Standard capacity × Expected production) ÷ Standard hours
= (50,000 units × 80%) ÷ 25,000 hours
= 1.6 units per hour

Coupon rate is the yearly interest earned by a loan and it can be calculated with

where i is the annual interest and p is the par value of the bond or the initial loan amount.
For this particular case, since the semiannual payment is $28.50, then the annual payment is 2 x 28.50 = $57.00.
Thus, we have

From this, the coupon rate is 0.057 x 100% = 5.7%.
Answer: 5.7%
Answer:
$88,150
Explanation:
DINK method for insurance sums one half of all the debt plus funeral expenses. Thus,
Using DINK method
One half of mortgage, 140,000 = 70000
One half of car loan, 14000 = 7000
One half of personal debts, 4800 = 2400
One half of credit card loans, 3500 = 1750
Funeral expenses = 7000
Thus
Total insurance needed =
70000 + 7000 +2400 + 1750 + 7000
= $88,150
Note that, when using DINK method, what the spouse earn isn't used in calculating total insurance.
